Job description

6-Month Contract | SC Clearance (Current, Lapsed or Eligible)

Hybrid working (2 days p/week onsite near Cardiff for the first month then 1 day onsite p/month thereafter)

Budgets are tight, we can only go to £450 p/day. This has been determined as Outside IR35 if that helps (we can still pay through an umbrella of course if you prefer that).

We're recruiting an Azure Data Specialist to support the operation, administration and ongoing development of a modern Microsoft Azure data platform.

This isn't a Data Scientist role. We're looking for someone with a strong operational and platform administration background who can manage, support and improve enterprise cloud data services.

You’ll need experience with:

• Microsoft Databricks
• Microsoft Fabric
• Power BI
• Administration and operational support of Azure data platforms

You’ll also ideally have experience with:

• Azure DevOps and controlled deployment environments
• Infrastructure as Code using Terraform
• Integration platforms, ideally Salesforce MuleSoft

Ideally you’ll have:

• Current SC Clearance, recently lapsed SC, or be eligible and willing to undergo SC/MV clearance
• Experience working within secure or highly regulated environments
• Strong troubleshooting and platform support skills

Contract Length: 6 months initially, with strong potential for extension

Location: Hybrid role with occasional travel to Cardiff
